Hi all,
I was trying to install Ubuntu 9.10 on my new Dell Precision M6400, that
I bought from the Dell Depot.
As soon as I got it I installed 2 Western Digital 320gb Scorpio Sata
drives. I used the onboard Intel Matrix Storage Manager (v8.0.0.1039)

Hi Lisa & Eric,
Questions:
Can you just assign an ip number to a computer? Or does something up
stream of it, (a computer, router, dhcp server, whatever), have to be
made aware of that computer's ip number.
Example, when I assign static ip's on the green zone, I always enter the

Hi,
I would recommend IPCop. It is not a book, it is a router/firewall
distro and works quite well. I use it for my linux network, however, I
believe that windows people use it as well. There is an email list for
